Lyrics:
And when you're sitting there
In your silk upholstered chair,
Talking to some rich folks that you know,
Well, I hope you don't see me
In my ragged company
All that you know, I could never be alone,

Take me down, little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground,
Send me dead flowers every morning,
Send me dead flowers by the mail,
Send me dead flowers to my wedding,
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave,

And when you're sitting back
In your rose pink Cadillac,
Making bets on Kentucky Derby days,
I'll be in my basement room
With a needle and a spoon,
And another girl to take my pain away

Take me down, little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground,
Send me dead flowers every morning,
Send me dead flowers by the mail,
Send me dead flowers to my wedding,
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave,

Take me down, little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground,
Send me dead flowers every morning,
Send me dead flowers by the mail,
Send me dead flowers to my wedding,
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
No, I won't forget to put roses on your grave
